Botanists discover new bamboo species
"DES MOINES, Iowa - A new species of North American bamboo was recently discovered by Iowa State University and University of North Carolina botanists, making it the third known native species of the hardy grass in the United States. The "hill cane" was discovered in the Appalachian Mountains. It's different from the other two native species of bamboo, which were discovered more than 200 years ago, because it drops its leaves in the fall."

2. I can't decide which is a better band name.
"Hill Cane" or "New Bamboo Species"
